Same boat. I'm chained to a desk 9 hours a day and there's intermittent waves of stress involved. It's wearing on my physical and mental well being. I feel like I spend most of my free time trying to undo the damage caused by this - like going to the gym, doctor, mental health escapes, etc.

I'm thinking about quitting and just starting over simply for the sake of my health. I daydream about some simple task job where I get my daily dose of exercise and interact with happy, sane people, even if it pays much less. We only get one life and one body. You can't go to the store and buy another when you trash the only one you get.

I get that. My memory is shite, I'm always tired, and just dragging myself out of bed in the morning is a chore now. My job is making changes that hurt in the short run but should massively help in the long run, but we shall see. I cannot keep doing this much longer.
